The father of an ex-girlfriend of mine was deaf due a childhood bout of measles. This was before the measles vaccine was available, of course.

Measles still exists in other parts of the world, what happens if a carrier gets on a plane to the US, and people have stopped vaccinating?

Vaccines have nothing to do with autism. Absolutely nothing. There is absolutely no evidence that vaccines cause autism, and anyone who tells you otherwise is either an idiot or a liar.

The Walking House Screenshot-sm 304

What is 10' tall, has six hydraulic legs, and is powered by the wind and solar panels? The prototype pod house built by art collective N55 in Copenhagen, Denmark. With the help of MIT, N55 built the pod over a two-year period at a cost of £30,000. Designers say it provides a solution to the problem of rising water levels as the house can simply walk away from floods. One of the designers says, "This house is not just for travellers but also for anyone interested in a more general way of nomadic living." It won't be long now until the Japanese make Howl's Moving Castle.
